Wooden mid‑century vintage plant/side table from Germany, dating to 1950–1960, featuring a Sunburst pearl‑effect top with dark contrasting bands, a gold/brass edge, three tapered legs, and dimensions 45 cm wide by 32 cm high by 27 cm deep, in good vintage condition with minor signs of wear.
Description from the seller
For sale, a legendary post-war design classic — an original coffee/side table (the so-called Nierentisch) from the turn of the 1950s and 1960s. The furniture captivates with an asymmetrical mid-century modern form and an exceptionally rare, spectacular tabletop finish. Key features of the furniture:
- Sunburst tabletop with a mother-of-pearl effect: The light rays on the surface have a pearlescent structure that beautifully shimmers under light (depth effect / pearloid). They contrast with deep, black stripes.
- Iconic shape: The classic, organic kidney form, so characteristic of the rockabilly era and design of that time.
- Elegant finish: The edge of the tabletop is protected by the original glossy gilded/brass-colored band.
- Lightweight construction: The furniture rests stably on three distinctive tapered wooden legs (sticks). The legs are screw-on, which greatly facilitates transport.
Applications:
The table works perfectly as a design-forward planter stand for a unique plant, as a stylish coffee table beside a chair (e.g., Chierowski/Lisek style), or as a decorative element in modern loft and retro interiors.
Condition:
The furniture is preserved in its original, good vintage condition with natural signs of age. The tabletop has minor surface scratches (visible mainly under light, which only confirms its authenticity) — no deep losses or discolorations. The gold strip and legs are in good condition. The table is stable, clean, and ready to be placed in a home."
